Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Proportion of patients whose corneal fluorescein staining score (ICSS) decreased by ≥1 point from baseline at visit 5 (study eye)84 days after admissionICSS:no staining = 0,few/rare punctate lesions = 1,discrete and countable lesions = 2,lesions too numerous to count,but not coalescent = 3,coalescent = 4

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Average changes in VAS scores of 6 dry eye symptoms (burning/needling sensation, pruritus, foreign body sensation, discomfort, photophobia and pain) at the NO.3, NO.4 and NO.5 visit were compared with baseline (binocular)14 days after admission ,42 days after admission ,84days days after admission0-100 points VAS score was evaluated
corneal fluorescein staining score (ICSS)at the NO.3, NO.4 and NO.5 visit was compared with the baseline (binocular)14 days after admission ,42 days after admission ,84days days after admissionICSS:no staining = 0,few/rare punctate lesions = 1,discrete and countable lesions = 2,lesions too numerous to count,but not coalescent = 3,coalescent = 4
EDS score at the NO.3, NO.4 and NO.5 visit was compared with the baseline EDS score (binocular)14 days after admission ,42 days after admission ,84days days after admission0-100 points VAS score was evaluated
Tear break-up time(BUT) at the NO.3, NO.4 and NO.5 visit was compared with the baseline (binocular)14 days after admission,42 days after admission ,84days days after admissionThe time taken for the first dry spot to appear on the cornea after a complete blink with fluorescein
Schirmer's II test (with anesthetic) at the NO.3, NO.4 and NO.5 visit was compared with the baseline (binocular)14 days after admission ,42 days after admission ,84days days after admissionBasal tear secretion with topical anesthesia, determined by the moisture length on the filter paper in 5 minutes
oxford score at the NO.3, NO.4 and NO.5 visit was compared with the baseline (binocular)14 days after admission ,42 days after admission ,84days days after admission0\ V grade was evaluated
